You are considering investing in a bond that matures 20 years from now (the par value of the bond is $1,000). It pays an annual end-of-year coupon rate of interest of 7.25 percent, or $72.5 per year. The bond currently sells for $900. Your marginal income tax rate (applied to interest payments) is 28 percent. Capital gains are taxed at the same rate as ordinary income. What is your after-tax rate of return if you buy this bond today and hold it until maturity? Use Table II and Table IV or a financial calculator to answer the question. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
You bought a 10-year, 5% coupon bond for $1,000 and sold it 1 year later for $1,100. The bond pays interest annually. If your marginal tax rate is 30%, and 50% of capital gains are taxable, what is the after-tax rate of return on your bond investment?
If you buy municipal bond (tax free) that cost $1,000 and will pay a 4.7% coupon every year for the next 10 years (so the maturity date is in 10 years). At maturity the bond returns the original $1,000. If there is a 2.5% annual inflation, a) what real rate of return will you receive? b) How much real $ profit did you make from the bond?
